This video tutorial introduces the concept of area, explaining how it differs from perimeter. It demonstrates how to find the area of squares, rectangles, and irregular shapes using square units. The tutorial then explains how to calculate area using multiplication, specifically for squares and rectangles. It concludes with practical tips and a real-world example of calculating area in a warehouse setting.

What is the main difference between area and perimeter?

• Area is measured in meters, while perimeter is measured in feet.

• Area and perimeter are the same.

• Area is the space around a shape, while perimeter is the space inside it.

• Area is the space inside a shape, while perimeter is the space around it.

How do we measure the area of a square using square units?
